Agriculture

         In chapter 1 it discussed a lot about how Paleolithic people made separate and distinct societies with its history. It explains the different cultural lifestyle they had and the many ways they farmed and supplied their food. Back in these times of the Paleolithic in life people would gather wild foods and hunt wild animals for their families to survive. There was a time when people had only access to what was out there in the wild. Today we have access to fish markets, super markets, and restaurants, it so interesting to see how so much has changed over the years in the food industry. There was a big shift in the food industry and that was called Agriculture, it spread gradually but as time went on it had spread all around the world. Mostly everyone that could afford it would grow their own crops and pick them; it was a new way of life in the food industry. I really admire these time zones because it made a way for us and how we should supply our food to survive. I wouldn’t necessarily agree with how our food is grown and stocked today, I personally wish we still grew our crops with no added preservatives or gmo’s but all in all without these time zones teaching us how to grow and gather food we would be lost. The Paleolithic era taught us a lot about depending on ourselves to grow and gather our own food, because if we didn’t we would not be able to survive, know the true value of food, and how there were times where food wasn’t so easy to access.
